Celebrating PEI’s rich heritage, history, and artistry from seven unique angles across each of our sites, the PEI Museum and Heritage Foundation has something for everyone.

The PEI Museum and Heritage Foundation is an integral part of the Prince Edward Island community. We operate seven provincial museums and heritage sites across Prince Edward Island, providing Islanders and visitors alike with an opportunity to discover our province’s heritage and culture.

Provincial Museum and Heritage Sites

  • Acadian Museum of Prince Edward Island (open year-round)
  • Basin Head Fisheries Museum (open seasonally)
  • Beaconsfield Historic House (open year-round)
  • Elmira Railway Museum (open seasonally)
  • Eptek Art & Culture Centre (open year-round)
  • Green Park Shipbuilding Museum & Yeo House (open seasonally)

Beyond administering these sites, the Foundation is responsible for the provincial collection of more than 100,000 material and cultural objects. Our staff provide professional conservation and collection services to outside groups, individuals and organizations. Twice a year, the Foundation publishes its official journal of PEI heritage and culture: The Island Magazine.
